We now have a solid month of fishing under our belts. I am very happy to see recent rains to the area. All of our reservoirs are at or above desired levels for this time of year. We are also fortunate to have been spared the flooding rains that are occurring to our west and north. March provided very good fishing and April looks to be even better. All of the comments made on the March report are holding true. It can be viewed on our website : www.southeasternanglers.com. Here is a short update on what we are doing. |

CAHILL TIME ON THE TACCOA |

Friday, 11 April 2008 |
A beautiful April 9th found Charles Bagley and I on the Taccoa near Blue Ridge, GA. We had a dual purpose, to fish and to try to find access to a particularly good section of the stream. The day was a success!
I was throwing a Sage XP 3wt with a Lamson Force reel—a nice outfit for fishing dries on smaller streams. Charles was using his 5wt Winston with an Orvis reel—a very nice outfit, nicely suited for windy conditions. |

Ahhh, mid- Feb but a beautiful day. Steve Campbell of Big Ridge and I drove up from Chattanooga for the day. Steve is just getting back into fly fishing and fishing for trout after a several year hiatus. Like me, Steve grew up in WV fishing those beautiful and natural mountain streams. |

Tacoa in Late January |
|

|
Wednesday, 06 February 2008 |
Tacoa River, GA Jan 26, air temp 59/water temp 41, Sunny conditions. Charles Bagley and I hit the Tacoa twice last week with good success both times. On Monday, the weather was warm and sunny which was nice for the fisherman but not good for the BWO’s! We could see trout rising as far up and down river as we could see. Much of the water was flat and skinny. I could see that most of the rises were to midges however, the trout had been seeing enough BWO’s so that they would take the #18 Duck’sYellow Post Emerger (DYPE) with a trailing a #20 Barr’s emerger fairly often. They hit the floating emerger about twice as often as the trailer.. We both hooked a few dozen between us.

Southeastern Anglers January 2008 Fishing Report |

Tuesday, 15 January 2008 |
The cold tailwaters of east Tennessee and surrounding area are in great shape as we enter a new year. Despite record low rainfall in the region during 2007, TVA and USACE have done a good job of budgeting flows and keeping the rivers at sustainable levels for our trout. The cold , late spring of 2007 coupled with a moderate flow regime during summer and fall , ensured adequate coldwater through the later parts of 2007. Of the big rivers we fish, our trout populations are currently as high as we have seen them. We anticipate 2008 being a very good year for trout fishing in our area on the tailwaters. Current rainfall is raising lake levels.
